What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

Abstract

introductionSialic acids are important contributors to the polyanionic component of the glomerular filtration barrier, which regulates permeability selectivity. Pathologic glomerular hyposialylation, associated with podocyte effacement, has been implicated in human and mouse glomerulopathies. Oral treatment with

methodsHere we explore the sialylation status of kidney biopsies obtained from 27 subjects with various glomerular diseases using lectin histochemistry.

resultsWe identified severe glomerular hyposialylation in 26% of the biopsies. These preliminary findings suggest that this condition may occur relatively frequently and may be a novel target for therapy. We describe the background, rationale, and design of a phase 1 study to test safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of ManNAc in subjects with primary podocyte diseases.

conclusionWe recently demonstrated that ManNAc was safe and well tolerated in a first-in-human phase 1 study in subjects with UDP-
